The weak two bid is a preemptive bid, a trouble maker. You use it to make it difficult for your opponents to reach a satisfactory bid. You may go down but it's worth it.

When you are not strong enough to open the bidding but you have a six card suit, you can consider opening with a bid of two in that suit. Many players do it with 5 to 11 high card points with at least two face cards in the long suit. Most of the points should be in the long suit.

You can also make a 'weak two' overcall when the opponents open the bidding. 'Weak Two' bids are only for spades, hearts and diamonds. When you and your partner agree to play 'Weak Twos' it is understood that the 'Strong Two Club' opening bid is used to show a strong hand.
